sjefen6I have been trying to install ubuntu-server i386 on an old Pentium 4 dell desktop, but during the installation the instalation stops and I am left with a blue screen, with a gray line without any text. Is there anything im doing wrong?00:58
ewookno. but 1, your cd / cd-reader / cable / or other falty hardware might create the scenario01:03
sjefen6xp installed flawlessly some hours ago. no memory-defects, and im testing the install media atm01:04
ewookxp does not always die upon install, it can show the problems later on resulting in bluescreens or simply falty behaviour.01:05
sjefen6the cd-rom is valid01:05
ewookdo a memcheck01:05
sjefen6does that rule out the media and reader?01:05
sjefen6no memory-defects01:06
ewookit rules out the cd at least.01:06
sjefen6ran memcheck some hours ago01:06
ewookwhat release are you trying?01:07
sjefen6ubuntu-9.10-server-i38601:07
ewookdo you have a spare cd to try the LTS also?01:08
sjefen6I can try...01:08
ewooknot needed, but.. what dell model was it?01:08
ewookrather, the LTS is not needed if you don't wanna.01:09
sjefen6optiplex01:11
sjefen6GX26001:11
sjefen6torrent of downloards should be more easy accessable01:12
ewookthere seems to be a few threads regarding GX260 and installation issues with 9.10, a rather few seems to mention issues with multiple kinds of hardware, weird.01:13
ewookyou could go 9.04 if you wish to, LTS isn't the hottest cookie around right now :)01:13
sjefen6agree01:14
sjefen6but where can i find torrents? http is dead slow for me...01:14
ewookoh. there should be an alternative download selectable at the site.01:16
ewookhrr, not of 9.04 that I can find tho.01:16
ewookjust click once on the download now, and then select alternative, and then more options pops up01:16
ewookmy my. Haven't downloaded releases for a while, I'm quite lost as well :)01:17
xperiahello to all ! i have a question about some strange connection on my ubuntu webserver.01:17
xperiai have in my logs this connection here01:18
sjefen6the stupis redirects masks the adress to the mirrors, so im unable to browse the mirror for torrents01:18

ewooksjefen6: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#bt01:19
xperiacan somebody tell me if my ubuntu server was used for a dos attack ?01:19
xperiain the logs i have nearly all 7 to 8 min a connection established to a ssl port01:19
xperiaand that for nearly a whole day01:20
xperiais this normal ?01:20
ewookxperia: that might be something more for the more apache-oriented folks, but it looks like you're proxying connections to mee.01:20
bogeyd6_xperia these are just http connects01:20
bogeyd6_assuming you arent running a proxy it might just them scanning you01:21
xperiano i dont run a proxy01:21
ewooktrue as bogeyd said. then it's just a great deal of connect-attempts. how's the other traffic? any other noticeable impact on the machine?01:22
xperiaat the moment i see just only this redirects allways. i had this allready one time and i think people from apache told me01:24
xperiathat this is related to my php page01:24
xperiaif a php page has some code for redirection this logic could be used also for request redirecting01:25
ewookyes.01:25
xperianeed maybe to fix my php page a litlle. will look now what the php people can told me ad maybe give me a solution01:26
xperiaokay thanks for the help !01:26

lwizardlhi03:07
lwizardlfrom a networking of servers aspect what routers are the better ones to get that are able to be found anywhere ?03:08
twblwizardl: are you asking for hardware recommendations?03:09
lwizardlyeah03:09
twbThe best kind of router is one that you can install a flexible FOSS distro on, such as Ubuntu or OpenWRT or OpenBSD03:10
twbFor a SOHO, I have had success with OpenWRT on the Asus WL-500g Premium.03:10
lwizardlok because i've mostly used Linksys routers and 90% of the ones i have owned either got flashed by me with either dd-wrt or openwrt03:11
twb(Most low-end routers will run Linux internally anyway, but it'll be locked down and crippled.)03:11
twbIf you're comfortable with (say) OpenWRT, then I'd grab the OpenWRT HCL and pick a well-supported unit from that lit.03:12
twb*list03:12
lwizardlthis is the first time i've been working with openwrt but i have used dd-wrt for like the last 3 years or so. and before that i was forced to keep the linksys fw on the devices because they wasn't owned by me03:13
lwizardlthey was isp owned03:13
twbThe plural form is "were", not "was".03:14
twbe.g. "he was confused; they were confused"03:15
lwizardlyeah but you understood what i was saying :)03:20
lwizardlso basically continue doing what I have been doing using any router that supports a better fw like using openwrt03:21
lwizardlshould be fine03:21
=== NCommander is now known as Guest88322

khelvandunix, Anonymous2, if you guys are still around - it appears that my girlfriend was kicking the server, and that was shutting it down the hard way. I'm not 100% sure on that being the cause, but there seem to be no other issues at the moment (I still have yet to give it a monitor and run memtest though).07:13
khelvanCan anyone tell me why my 10/100/1000M card in my Ubuntu Server sometimes negotiates 100M, sometimes 1000M, with the same 10/100/1000M Netgear switch, and nothing changing other than a reboot? Is there a way to force it to 1000M, and does doing so have any disadvantages?07:20
twbkhelvan: do you have ssh on the switch?07:24
khelvantwb - No, I don't think so. It's a mindless Netgear GS608NA.07:28

jumbersMy host provides me 2 IPs to my dedicated server and there is 1 NIC installed on the box. How would I be able to set up my network interfaces to take advantage of the second IP?09:48
AlexC_jumbers, using 'ip' command. Something like: ip addr add x.x.x.x/x brd x.x.x.x dev eth0 label eth0:109:49
AlexC_brd being broadcast09:50
AlexC_jumbers, you can also add this to your /etc/network/interfaces line, just add a new line but prefix it with 'up '09:51
FireCrotchjumbers: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/ubuntu-linux-creating-ethernet-alias-for-eth0-network-device.html09:52
FireCrotchthat link explains the procedure quite well :)09:52
jumbersAha, that's what I was looking for, a permanent setup09:52
AlexC_no, don't use that09:53
AlexC_(in ref to FireCrotch link)09:53
FireCrotchAlexC_: And why exactly do you object to my link?09:53
FireCrotchit's the proper way to set up an interface alias09:54
AlexC_FireCrotch, it uses the older methods of doing it by setting up aliases. You should do it with the newer 'ip' suit of commands09:54
AlexC_all your managment should be through 'ip', not 'ifconfig'09:54
AlexC_ifconfig is old and doesn't provide you with everything09:55
FireCrotchMeh, it's just a different way of accomplishing exactly the same thing09:57
AlexC_different and old with less flexibility09:58
FireCrotchdifferent and stable and perfectly fine09:58
jumbersSo adding a virtual interface is evil? I don't see how/why10:00
AlexC_jumbers, no no, using 'ifconfig' to do it. Using IP is ideally recommended10:01
AlexC_s/IP/ip10:01
jumbersI planned to use the second part of that page; Adding the interface to /etc/network/interfaces10:02
AlexC_which does the same10:02
AlexC_use the 1 line I gave, added to /etc/network/interfaces10:02
TeTeTcjwatson: just installing lucid UEC. I installed the front end first with clc,walrus,cc and sc. Then the node. The node told me that it cannot find walrus.10:03
AlexC_for example, underneath 'gateway ....' add 'up ip addr add x.x.x.x/x brd x.x.x.x dev eth0 label eth0:1'10:03
AlexC_and also another duplicate line, but replace 'up' with 'down', and that will be removed when that interface goes down to10:03
TeTeTcjwatson: I checked ps aux | grep avahi on the frontend and the avahi line for walrus looks different from the others. It says avahi-publish -s 192.168.1.120 instead of avahi-publish -s TestCloud10:03

owhIf I use channel bonding to combine three Ethernet interfaces, using adaptive transmit load balancing (mode 5), is there a way that I can force all ssh traffic to one specific slave?22:48
subno. why would you want to? what would the behavior be if that specific slave interface is down?22:49
ruben23hi guys, is it possible to ssh without always making input of passwd22:51
owhsub: I want to because I have 3 WAN interfaces, one of which has unlimited traffic which I need to use for backups. I do not want to use the other 2 interfaces which have higher throughput, but limited traffic.22:53
owhI don't particularly care if it dies if the interface is down.22:53
=== dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates
subEthernet bonding != IP load balancing22:55
owhsub: That's interesting, since that's not what I've been reading. Specifically the documentation tells me that mode 5 is "Adaptive transmit load balancing: channel bonding that does not require any special switch support. The outgoing traffic is distributed according to the current load (computed relative to the speed) on each slave. Incoming traffic is received by the current slave. If the receiving slave fails, another slave 22:59
owhUnless of course I cannot read, which is a possibility :)22:59
subdo each of your 3 WAN interfaces reside on different subnets?23:00
subie: have different IPs?23:00
owhThey are three completely separate connections from different ISPs. There is a modem between me and the link for each of the links. Each modem has a separate WAN IP address and normally a workstation would connect to the modem and get a LAN address from the on-board DHCP server.23:01
owhThink of it as combining three DSL connections. It's not that, but the analogy holds.23:02
subno, it doesn't, because each packet out is likely to have different IPs23:03
subthanks to NAT23:03
owhThat is correct, but under mode 5, I understand that a connection is routed through a specific slave once it has been established.23:04
owhHmm, perhaps I should be looking at mode 2.23:05
=== erichammond1 is now known as erichammond
subdest mac address will always be your gateway's mac in that case. i don't know if it will continue to route anything through the same interface on mode 5 because it specifically says it's based on load and also interface bonding is a different layer than mode 5, but admittedly this isn't something i'm 100% familiar with23:06
owhLet me ask the question in a different way. I have 3 WAN links, two high speed, with limited data, one lower speed with unlimited data. I need to route all ssh traffic across the unlimited data link and want to provide the best throughput for LAN clients who use the server as their gateway. How do I accomplish this?23:07
subi've done etherchannel and LACP, but always at the ethernet layer and never had to worry about NAT/routing issues23:07
owhLACP assumes that the other end can deal with what's coming in, almost like having a multi-link ppp support at both ends. That is not the case here. The links are completely separate, think of them as three domestic ADSL connections.23:08
owhI am not particularly interested in one user having all available bandwidth, just the best experience for all users.23:09
subi realize that, I was explaining my background with bonding23:09
owhCool.23:09
owhJust making sure I'm on the same page too :)23:10
subin fact, i wrote this: http://subversity.net/link-aggregation-on-a-redhat-centos-server-an :|23:10
subwell23:10
subbecause of NAT and routing, you likely want something to do your load balancing at the IP layer23:10
subfor forcing the SSh traffic over a certain interface you could probably use iptables, I'm not familair with the rules enough, I just know that you can forward it out a specific interface23:11
subas for load balancing the remaining two links, i'm not really sure23:11
owhJust to make sure that I'm making myself clear, if one user is downloading a big file, I don't want or need them to have their download spread over three links - in fact I cannot see how that would ever work unless I setup a VPS in the cloud, make a VPN to that and use its pipe to get the data - not really what I had in mind.23:11
owhsub: Yes, that article is not what I'm looking for. (For that I have a gigabit port on the server -- more than enough for 20 users in this environment :)23:13
subI know it's not what you're looking for, once again23:13
owhBasically we have a crappy link, it's slow but unlimited. We're locked into another two years of contract and need to increase bandwidth.23:13
subYeah, I get that, and my answer was:23:13
subas for load balancing the remaining two links, i'm not really sure23:14
subfor forcing the SSh traffic over a certain interface you could probably use iptables, I'm not familair with the rules enough, I just know that you can forward it out a specific interface23:14
owhSo, then it appears that you're saying that bonding isn't the right hammer for this nail.23:14
owh(As in, when all you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.)23:15
subcorrect23:15
owhBack to the drawing board.23:15
subbonding is generally used when you need more throughput to the LAN, or redundancy to the LAN23:15
sublook into FORWARD rules for iptables23:16
subshould be easy enough to forward tcp/22 traffic over a specific links, I can't answer for the load balancing though23:16
owhBear with me for a moment if you will. You can tell me to bugger off if you've lost interest :)23:16
owhThe three WAN links have different WAN addresses. Internally they can be configured to have the same LAN IP addresses. If I bond the interfaces and for a moment ignore ssh, would mode 2 not work? I understand that it keeps the same client/server pair on the same slave unless it fails. Or am I missing something?23:19
subhow are you planning on giving them the same LAN IP address?23:20
jiboumanskirkland++ ttx++ nice job on eucalyptus23:20
kirklandjiboumans: we're almost there23:21
kirklandjiboumans: gotta get the MIRs approved23:21
kirklandjiboumans: kees is helping us with that23:21
owhThe three modems can be configured to give the same address via DHCP. Alternatively, if the bond defines the IP address, then I can configure each modem to see that as a valid LAN address.23:21
jiboumanskirkland: anything contentious there?23:21
kirklandjiboumans: just the urgency/late-breaking nature of all-things Eucalyptus23:21
jiboumanskirkland: of course =/23:21
jiboumansbetter in alpha2 than beta1 though :)23:22
subhaving three modems that give out the same IP address is not the same as giving each modem the same IP address, not that it matters because that would just be an IP conflict and would result in a broken network23:22
owhBut the modems are not connected to the LAN, they are only connected to my ethernet sockets.23:23
subi guess i don't really understand your question23:23
subthey're in bridging mode?23:23
owhNo23:23
subdo the modems have internal IP addresses?23:23
owhYes23:24
subcan you make a diagram of what you are describing? i'm not really sure where you're going with this23:24
owh(Remember, there is a forth interface that connects to the LAN.)23:24
subalso, have you looked into something like pfSense?23:24
suboh23:25
subso you're saying the modems are connected directly to your gateway23:25
